Leonard Cohen – Show Me The Place

show me the place, where you want your slave to go
show me the place, i’ve forgotten i don’t know
show me the place where my head is bend and low
show me the place, where you want your slave to go

show me the place, help me roll away the stone
show me the place, i can’t move this thing alone
show me the place where the word became a man
show me the place where the suffering began

the troubles came i saved what i could save
a shred of light, a particle away
but there were chains so i hastened to the hay
there were chains, a lot of chains
like a spade

show me the place, where you want your slave to go
show me the place, i’ve forgotten i don’t know
show me the place, where you want your slave to go

the troubles came i saved what i could save
a shred of light, a particle away
but there were chains so i hastened to the hay
there were chains so i loved you like a slave

show me the place
show me the place
show me the place

show me the place, help me roll away the stone
show me the place, i can’t move this thing alone
show me the place where the word became a man
show me the place where the suffering began
Show Me The Place Lyrics by Leonard Cohen

LEONA LEWIS – When It Hurts

I am numb to the pain, I am numb once again without you.
I don’t know who to blame, can’t react the same without you.
Whether I laugh or cry, is an endless job when I’m around you.

‘Cause baby you,
You’re loving the way it hurts,
It’s goodbye,
‘Cause you’re loving the way it hurts.
Finally you came to say it,
I don’t need this everyday ache
Oh, you.
You’re loving the way it hurts.

I was dumb to see it, dumb to believe in living without you
Everything looks strange, my whole life rearranged without you.
I am in this, too, only see it do without you.
I can’t sing myself another song without you

‘Cause baby you,
You’re loving the way it hurts,
It’s goodbye,
‘Cause you’re loving the way it hurts.
Finally you came to say it,
I don’t need this everyday ache
Oh, you.
You’re loving the way it hurts.

The truth is I can’t let it go,
The truth is I already know.
The truth is I can’t say goodbye
The truth is I can give one more try.

‘Cause you’re loving the way it hurts,
You love it when it hurts.
Finally you came to say it,
I don’t need this everyday ache
Oh, you.
You’re loving the way it hurts.
Oh, you, you’re loving the way it hurts.
Oh, you, you’re loving the way it hurts.

LEONA LEWIS – Un Love Me

Waiting, sitting in the front seat,
Which one of us will be
The first one to leave?

Empty, out of words,
We’re spinning, going in circles.
Why we won’t let this die?

It doesn’t matter
All the times you broke my heart
When I’m alone
Wish you’d be with me in the dark,
But when you’re here you know
We always fall apart,
We’re better off on our own.

Wish I could tell you goodbye,
But I won’t, ’cause every time that I try
I can’t let go, I’m begging you to
Un love me, un love me, un love me.
‘Cause I can’t un love you.

Forcing, even though we’re broken,
We keep holding on to these
Distant memories.

And now you know I saw those pictures on your phone
And you don’t even bother ask me where I go
When I don’t make it home
Now everybody knows we’re better off on our own.

Wish I could tell you goodbye,
But I won’t, ’cause every time that I try
I can’t let go, I’m begging you to
Un love me, un love me, un love me.
‘Cause I
Now I sure wanna be free,
But I don’t, ’cause I still wanna believe you’re the one.
I’m begging you to un love me, un love me, un love me,
‘Cause I can’t un love you.

I can’t un love you, I, I can’t un love you,
I can’t un love you, I, I can’t un love you,
I can’t un love you, I, I can’t un love you,
I can’t un love you, I…

Wish I could say you goodbye,
‘Cause every time that I try
I’m begging you to un love me, un love me, un love me,
‘Cause now you now I sure wanna be free.
But I don’t, ’cause I still wanna believe you’re the one.
I’m begging you to un love me, un love me, un love me,
‘Cause I can’t un love you.

I can’t un love you, I, I can’t un love you,
I can’t un love you, I, I can’t un love you,
I can’t un love you, I, I can’t un love you,
I can’t un love you,
‘Cause I can’t un love you.

Leona Lewis feat. Childish Gambino – Trouble

You drink more than you used to
Fell in love how could you?
Trust your heart like only fools do
Go on let it bleed.
You smoked 10 now it’s 20
Bet you wish you’d never met me
To stick around you must be crazy
Go on let it bleed

I told you never to get used to me
I stay awake when you fall asleep
I’m a whole lot of trouble
We’re in a whole lot of trouble
I told you you should never follow me
But here we are, and you’re in too deep
I’m a whole lot of trouble
We’re in a whole lot of trouble

You shout louder than you used to
And you hold on tighter in the bedroom
Stick around like I’mma change soon
Go on let it bleed
As you stand there trying to save me
Use your head and baby leave me
Gonna take much more than a heart to save me
Go on let it bleed

I told you never to get used to me
I stay awake when you fall asleep
I’m a whole lot of trouble
We’re in a whole lot of trouble
I told you you should never follow me
But here we are, and you’re in too deep
I’m a whole lot of trouble
We’re in a whole lot of trouble

But is it lying if you know that they don’t want the truth?
Is it cheating if you work it while she in the room
Now you mad at the screen
We were something together
I wouldn’t call it a team, just big trouble and little kindness
When I know the best part’s are so behind us
Keep the pride tough, more than bad luck
I ain’t messed up, I’m just wishing what we needed was a less us
I fell in love with the wrong dream
Crying in my arms what’s it all mean?
I used to know those things and flow both wings
Thoughts where neverending and no Nuvaring’s
And we fought for a patent pending on my new jack swing
Cool, calm and collected keep the Kool Moe Dee
Here is hoping you satisfy that like an addict
I had thought we’d never had to do those things

I told you you should never follow me
But here we are, and you’re in too deep
I’m a whole lot of trouble
We’re in a whole lot of trouble

Leona Lewis – Trouble

I know, that you have been missin’ me
You made it so happy for me to believe
I tried everything to get across
And all you did was tell me I was your loss

I didn’t mean to go
Be we end up on the road
Why did you have to leave
Tell me to be
Who I wanna be, but that just ain’t me

I told you never to get used to me, I stay awake while you fall asleep.
I’m a whole lot of trouble, we’re in a whole lot of trouble.
You shout louder than you used to, and you hold on tighter in the bedroom.
I’m sorry I don’t miss you, just wish I could kiss you

Why did you try to buy, your way out of the fight
I didn’t think you would try,I thought you wouldn’t mind
We all have to go and we’ll end up at the road
Just hold your head up as we reach our path

I didn’t mean to go
Be we end up on the road
Why did you have to leave
Tell me to be
Who I wanna be, but that just ain’t me

I told you never to get used to me, I stay awake while you fall asleep.
I’m a whole lot of trouble, we’re in a whole lot of trouble.
You shout louder than you used to, and you hold on tighter in the bedroom.
I’m sorry I don’t miss you, just wish I could kiss you

LEONA LEWIS – The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face

The first time ever I saw your face
I thought the sun rose in your eyes
And the moon and the stars were the gifts you gave
To the dark and the empty skies

The first time ever I kissed your mouth
I felt the earth move in my hands
Like the trembling heart of a captive bird
That was there at my command my love

The first time ever I lay with you
I felt your heart so close to mine
And I knew our joy would fill the Earth
And last, and last, and last till the end of time
The first time ever I saw your face
Your face
Your face
Your face

LEONA LEWIS – The Best You Never Had

I was so in love with you
There was nothing I could do
Wouldn’t give me the time of day
Now you wanna be with me
You say you wanna be with me

You said I was the best
Gave your love out to the rest
There was nothing I could say
But now it’s going good for me
You say you wanna be with me
Now

Yeah, you’re telling me that I am where it’s at
But I ain’t having none of that….

[Chorus:]
Because I told you, you’d live to regret it,
and now I don’t wanna make you feel bad,
But when it comes to me just forget it,
I’ll be the best you never had,
You put me through so many emotions,
Now baby it’s your turn for that,
’cause in your empty heart I have left a mark,
The best you never had.

No, No, No

You saw me as a friend,
Baby I don’t want revenge,
But if you must know the truth,
What you didn’t see in me
Reflects what you will never be now,
When you’re telling me I was always the one,
I feel your desperation.

[Chorus]

Back rubs, good love, my stuff
That’s what you missed out on
My touch… so much we could have
You miss,
My kiss,
My lips,
The love I had for you
Our song, so long

[Chorus x2]

Well I will always be the best you never had

The best you never had

LEONA LEWIS – Take A Bow

[Verse 1:]
The flowers are faded now
Along with your letters
They will never see the light of day
Cause I’ll never take them out
And there’s no turning back
Its for the better
Baby I disserved more than empty words
And promises
I believed everything you said
And I give you the best I have
Oh.

[Chorus:]
So take a bow.
Cause you’ve taken everything else
You played the part and like a star you played it so well
Take a bow
’cause this scene is coming to an end
I gave you love. All you give me was pretend
So now… Take a bow

[Verse 2:]
The future’s about to change
Before you know it the curtain closes
Take a look around
There’s no one in the crowd
I’m throwing away the pain
And you should know that your performance it made me stronger now

[Chorus]

[Hook:]
Well it must have been slight of hand
’cause I still can’t understand
How I could never see
Just what a fool believed
Um

But the lies they start to show
Tell me how it feels to know
Right now that I wont be around
So baby before I put you out

[Chorus x2]

Leona Lewis – Sugar

I’ll pick you up when you’re down
Be there when no one’s around
When you’re in unfamiliar places
Count on me through life’s changes
I’m in tune with how you feel
Everything bout this is real
When you’re in unfamiliar places
Count on me through life’s changes

You’re all I want, yeah yeah
I know you’re the one, yeah
You’re all I want, yeah
I know you’re the one, yeah

Crash into me
At full speed
Crash into me
We can collide, we can collide

Crash into me
At full speed
We can collide, we can collide
We can collide, we can collide

When you’re in unfamiliar places
Count on me through life’s changes

Know that you’re never alone
In me you can find a home
When you’re in unfamiliar places
Count on me through life’s changes

You’re all I want, yeah
You’re all I want, yeah
You’re all I want, yeah
I know you’re the one, yeah

Crash into me
At full speed
We can collide, we can collide
We can collide, we can collide

Crash into me
We can collide, we can collide
We can collide, we can collide

We can collide, we can collide
We can collide, we can collide

Leona Lewis – Stop The Clocks

Sitting on the curb, starring at the stars
Leaning on your shoulder

I wanna cry until I laugh and laugh until I cry
Don’t wanna let a single moment of you pass me by
If only I could freeze the frame you know that I would
Stay right here for good

I I wanna stop the clocks tonight
I I wanna tear the hands right off
I I wanna stop the world from turning
And stay right here for good

I I hope the sun forgets to rise
I I I will never leave your side
I I wanna stop the clocks tonight
And stay right here for good

I’d rather spend my life motionless with you
Than dancing with another oh oh

I wanna cry until I laugh and laugh until I cry
Don’t wanna let a single moment of you pass me by
If only I could freeze the frame you know that I would
Stay right here for good www.eliterics.com

I I wanna stop the clocks tonight
I I wanna tear the hands right off
I I wanna stop the world from turning
And stay right here for good

I I hope the sun forgets to rise
I I I will never leave your side
I I wanna stop the clocks tonight
And stay right here for good

I, for good
Stay

I I wanna stop the clocks tonight
I I wanna tear the hands right off
I I wanna stop the world from turning
And stay right here for good

I I hope the sun forgets to rise
I I I will never leave your side
I I wanna stop the clocks tonight
And stay right here for good

I I wanna stop the clocks tonight
I I wanna tear the hands right off
I I wanna stop the world from turning

Leona Lewis – Playground

back and forth like a swing set,
round and round like a carousel,

tears fall down the from the things you say,
up and down like a see-saw,
you hang on my heart like a monkey bar,
i go right, you go left,
playtime is over can you hear the bell?

i guess that’s what happens,
when you take love for granted.
when you turn around, i’m no where to be found,
and the walls come down crashing.

cos i’m not gonna wait, til the sun goes down.
but you used my heart, like it’s your playground.
gotta get away, i will stay around.
but you used my heart, like it’s your playground.

like a playground, using my heart like a playground.
playing with my heart like a playground,
using my heart like a playground.

i built a bridge, you sat away,
this time, it’s not a game.
i knock, but the door’s locked,
a house can’t stand on a sandbox.

but i guess that’s what happens,
when you take love for granted.
when you turn around, i’m no where to be found,
and the walls come down crashing.

cos i’m not gonna wait, til the sun goes down.
but you used my heart, like it’s your playground.
gotta get away, i will stay around.
but you used my heart, like it’s your playground.

like a playground, using my heart like a playground.
playing with my heart like a playground,
using my heart like a playground.

i’m not gonna wait, til the sun goes down.
but you used my heart, like it’s your playground.
gotta get away, i will stay around.
but you used my heart, like it’s your playground.

like a playground, using my heart like a playground.
playing with my heart like a playground,
using my heart like a playground.

like a playground, using my heart like a playground.
playing with my heart like a playground,
using my heart like a playground.

Leona Lewis – Piece Of Your Heart

I don’t need the whole thing now
I just need a piece of your heartbeat
I need you to hold me tight
I just need a piece of your heart
(Tonight, Tonight, Tonight, Tonight)
I just need a piece of your heartbeat
(Tonight, Tonight, Tonight, Tonight)
I just need a piece of your heartbeat
In the distance I could see the city lights, shining bright
I could hear a lonely heartbeat beating, so I drove faster
It guided me to you like a thousand candle lights, burning bright
I know you gotta leave but wake me up before you go

I don’t need the whole thing now
I just need a piece of your heartbeat
I need you to hold me tight
I just need a piece of your heart
(Tonight, Tonight, Tonight, Tonight)
I just need a piece of your heartbeat
(Tonight, Tonight, Tonight, Tonight)
I just need a piece of your heartbeat

How many times can a heart beat in a life?
Or in a night?
How many lies can you live in the blink of an eye?
If we only just get a second we can live our final nights in paradise
Just break me off a piece of your perfect heartbeat ‘for you go.
I don’t need the whole thing now
I just need a piece of your heartbeat
I need you to hold me tight
I just need a piece of your heart
(Tonight, Tonight, Tonight, Tonight)
I just need a piece of your heartbeat
(Tonight, Tonight, Tonight, Tonight)
I just need a piece of your heartbeat

Leona Lewis – Mountains

he said i’m going to have a bed with lots of pillows
and that we’re going to build a house with lots of windows
and when we have the kids we’ll tell them to remind we
of where we were and how so we never get lazy

yeah we’ll climb mountains
climb mountains together
yeah we’ll climb mountains
climb mountains together

i’d never work these hours if i didn’t love you
my hands are always red and sunshine i sleep through
if you say we’re going to move somewhere with neighbours less crazy
you know i’m going to be there, because i trust my baby

yeah we’ll climb mountains
climb mountains together
yeah we’ll climb mountains
climb mountains together

i keep my fingers crossed that we’re going to be able
i touch the wood for luck, on our broken table
i know that it’s our heart that’s going to save us
if we never come back how can they blame us?

yeah we’ll climb mountains
climb mountains together
yeah we’ll climb mountains
climb mountains together

yeah we’ll climb mountains
climb mountains together
yeah we’ll climb mountains
climb mountains together

LEONA LEWIS – Let Somebody Love You

[Verse 1]
I’ve never seen
Such a face before
Tell me what’s wrong
Maybe I can help you tonight
I sure that it’s nothing
A kiss can not heal
Come let me show you I’m real

[Chorus]
Let somebody love you
Let somebody care
Take the weight off your shoulders
When it’s too much to bare
Let somebody save you
When you got no place to run
Hold out
Reach out for me
An I’ll be the one

[Verse 2]
Don’t be afraid
Breathe
Gently surrender your heart
One step at a time
Baby lean on me
Lean on me
Trust in me baby
It’s love that you feel
Come let me show you I’m real

[Chorus]
Let somebody love you
Let somebody care
Take the weight off your shoulders
When it’s too much to bare
Let somebody save you
When you got no place to run
Hold out
Reach out for me
An I’ll be the one

[Bridge]
Let somebody love you
for all the right reasons
Let somebody love you
And leave all your troubles behind
Maybe we could be more then just friends
Somehow
Some way
I’m gonna make you want me to stay

[Chorus]
Let somebody love you
Let somebody care
Take the weight off your shoulders
When it’s too much to bare
Let somebody save you
When you got no place to run
Hold out
Reach out for me
An I’ll be the one

LEONA LEWIS – I To You

Our love had a stench,
Even if you didn’t ask,
I would never say a word about it.
Now I stay home with the kids,
Everyday cleaning up where you live,
Even though I’m educated

‘Cause you are great, you are big,
And I don’t mind giving in, giving in,
For free, for free
You are love, you are sin,
You’ll always be everything, everything,
To me, to me

What am I to you?
What am I to you?
Don’t tell me, don’t kill me now.
What am I to you?
What am I to you?
Just keep me, and I won’t make a sound.

Wouldn’t tell anyone about your fears,
‘Bout your friends, ’bout the life that I miss
‘Cause to me you are the greatest.
I would run, I would jump, I would fall,
Just to make sure baby’s got it all,
But to them I can’t explain it.

You are great, you are big
And I don’t mind giving in, giving in
For free, for free.
You are love, you are sin
You’ll always be everything, everything
To me, to me.

Oh,
What am I to you?
What am I to you?
Don’t tell me, don’t kill me now.
What am I to you?
What am I to you?
Just keep me, and I won’t make a sound.

What am I to you?
What am I to you?
Just kiss me as you lay me down,
What am I to you?
What am I to you?
Don’t tell me, don’t kill me now.
Don’t kill me now.

Leona Lewis – Iris

I hurt myself today
To see if I still feel
I focus on the pain
The only thing that’s real
The needle tears a hole
The old familiar sting
Try to kill it all away
But I remember everything

What have I become?
My sweetest friend
Everyone I know
Goes away in the end
You could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt

I wear this crown of shit
Upon my liar’s chair
Full of broken thoughts
I cannot repair
Beneath the stains of time
The feelings disappear
You are someone else
I am still right here

What have I become?
My sweetest friend
Everyone I know
Goes away in the end

You could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt
If I could start again
A million miles away
I would keep myself
I would find a way
Iris Lyrics by Leona Lewis

LEONA LEWIS – Homeless

Waiting here
For you to call me
For you to tell me
That everything’s a big mistake

Waiting here
In this rainfall
Feeling so small
This dream was not suppose to break

I’m so sorry now
For the pain I caused you
Wont you please forgive
Please

But you don’t love me anymore
You don’t want me anymore
There’s a sign on your door
No vacancy, just emptiness
Without your love
I’m homeless

In this cold
I’m walking aimless
Feeling helpless
Without a shelter from the storm

In my heart
I miss you so much
I’m missing your touch
And the bed that used to be so warm

I’m so sorry now
For the pain I caused you
Wont you please forgive
Please

But you don’t love me anymore
You don’t want me anymore
There’s a sign on your door
No vacancy, just emptiness
Without your love
I’m homeless

My, My baby
I’m sorry
Oh

But you don’t love me anymore
You don’t want me anymore
There’s a sign on your door
No vacancy, just emptiness
Without your love
I’m homeless

Leona Lewis – Heart Lyrics

I hurt myself today
To see if I still feel
I focus on the pain
The only thing that’s real
The needle tears a hole
The old familiar sting
Try to kill it all away
But I remember everything

What have I become
My sweetest friend
Everyone I know goes away
In the end
And you could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt

I wear this crown of thorns
Upon my liar’s chair
Full of broken thoughts
I cannot repair
Beneath the stains of time
The feelings disappear
You are someone else
I am still right here

What have I become
My sweetest friend
Everyone I know goes away
In the end
And you could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt

If I could start again
A million miles away
I would keep myself
I would find a way

LEONA LEWIS – Glassheart

Baby, I’m staring at a piece of us
Shattered on the sidewalk
Tragic, broken like a china doll
Burning like a gun shot

My heart was beating
And so was yours
We threw each other
Down on the floor
My heart is breaking
It’s made of glass
I guess anything that’s good never ever lasts.

So baby if you love me, let me know
‘Cause everything that hurts you’ve hurt before
You’re about to tear this love apart
And break another glass heart.

So baby if you love me just let me know
‘Cause everytime we touch, touch it’s turning cold
Promise that we’ll never fall apart
And I’ll love you with my glass heart. [x3]

Right now, I’m standing in our empty room
Staring out the window
I hear music that we used to make
Boy play me that crescendo.

My heart was beating
And so was yours
We threw each other
Down on the floor

My heart is breaking
It’s made of glass
I guess anything that’s good never ever lasts.

So baby if you love me, let me know
‘Cause everything that hurts you’ve hurt before
You’re about to tear this love apart
And break another glass heart

So baby if you love me just let me know
‘Cause everytime we touch, touch it’s turning cold
Promise that we’ll never fall apart
And I’ll love you with my glass heart. [x3]

Promise that we’ll never fall apart, fall apart
And I’ll love you with my glass heart.
And I’ll love you with my glass heart.

So baby if you love me, let me know
‘Cause everything that hurts you’ve hurt before
You’re about to tear this love apart
And break another glass heart.
So baby if you love me just let me know
‘Cause everytime we touch, touch it’s turning cold
Promise that we’ll never fall apart
And I’ll love you with my glass heart.

LEONA LEWIS – Footprints In The Sand

You walked with me
Footprints in the sand
And helped me understand
Where I’m going

You walked with me
When I was all alone
With so much unknown
Along the way

Then I heard you say

I promise you
I’m always there
When your heart is filled with sorrow and despair
I’ll carry you
When you need a friend
You’ll find my footprints in the sand

I see my life
Flash across the sky
So many times have I been so afraid

And just when I
I thought I’d lost my way
You gave me strength to carry on

That’s when I heard you say

I promise you
I’m always there
When your heart is filled with sorrow and despair
And I’ll carry you
When you need a friend
You’ll find my footprints in the sand
When I’m weary
Well I know you’ll be there
And I can feel you
When you say

I promise you
Oh, I’m always there
When your heart is filled with sadness and despair
I’ll carry you
When you need a friend
You’ll find my footprints in the sand

When your heart is full of sadness and despair
I’ll carry you
When you need a friend
You’ll find my footprints in the sand
